[Q] Galaxy Note Sim Unlock

Hey Guys,
I bought a Galaxy Note here in Mexico, actually 2, one for me one for my GF...
The only company that brought it here was Telcel, but in 6 months i finish my contract and want to move to a different (Faster) Company...
Im new at android, so i was told i could sim unlock my android easy.. well i have been searching lots of forums, and havent found an answer yet,
I even dare to pay to get an unlock code at http://www.cellunlocker.net which i do NOT recommend i havent got answer for my problem yet, anyway here is my problem, i got the code, so its easy i just have to input the code on my phone, the problem is that i dont know how to input the code.
This is what i have tried so far...
1.- Put a sim of a Network locked on my phone... i was supposed to get a screen saying insert Network Lock code or something like that, instead all i got the first 3 times was Network Locked... that's it no option to input the code, right now i dont even get that screen it only shows the icon that means network locked...
2.- I search in the forums, and found sever ussd Codes in this tread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20750699&postcount=72
So ok i tried #7465625*638*Code# / #7465625*638*# / and according to the instructions i got from the cellunlocker page i tried #0111*Code#, all of them returns the same thing "Connection Problem or invalid MMI Code"
I have tried other ussd codes and for example *#06# for the imei and *#7465625# which gave me the current status do work, also another one to see the Mac of the bluetooth, so i stuck here....
Any ideas?? thanks!!!

im going to answer your question, you can try to use an online tool to try to unlock your note, THE BIG PROBLEM is that you wont be able to use in any other company because telcel has locked the firmware, the only thing you can do is change your firmware and you will able to use with other provider

So.. When ics is out i can update and then unlock.. Cause there are no firmware updates right now

Just wanted to sat that i flashed a custom ROM... Then when using a different sim it gave me the option to unlock so now im unlocked and well that website i used for getting the unlock code was for real

Could you please post the website? I need to unlock a well to use with iusacell

It is very easy
I am on the original unchanged ICS Touch Wizz 4.0.3 rom
using google play on your phone search for GalaxSim Unlock .... it worked perfectly for me
I think you have to have your phone rooted though...only minor prerequisite needed..

[Q] SKT SHV-E160 Admin Code Problem...

Ok I'm wondering if someone could help me out here. I picked up a Korean SKT Galaxy Note today, however the LTE isn't compatible with docomo's network. I did some searching online and found that there is a code you can put into the dialer to access a STK hidden menu, which ultimately let's you alter the phone to accept WCDMA frequencies and such. The code is:
319712358
However the phone then requires a password. I found 774632 as the password but when I put in the sequence, nothing happens.
I bought this phone used for 65,000 yen (about $720) and it is apparently unlocked, as I can use my docomo number without a problem. I desperately want to keep the phone (the store said I could return it) but have no use for it without the data, and thus would be incredibly grateful if someone could help me out...

May be try to use 996412 instead of 774632

If you're not getting replies it's because nobody that has seen this yet knows how to help (me included).
In my case it was quite simple as the companies over here are forced to give the unlock codes, all I did was put a SIM from a company other than what I had (as said on the instructions) and then bring the unlock menu and enter the code.
Don't know if using a different SIM before unlocking is necessary because of the model itself or just the company I was using, it wouldn't hurt trying that way so put another sim first and then bring the unlock panel.

Thank you very much for the reply. I have tryed two other sim cards. both givethe same result now isthere a way to check if the phone is ulocked not buy puting in an new sim? Also the phone has never had a fido sim in it could this cause problems?

The easiest way to check is using a non accepted sim card and getting network. I don't think never have used a fido sim is the issue.
I just want to be sure you're doing the steps right,
1.- Insert a non accepted sim and start the phone, when the phone has loaded you should see the message "locked network/sim" (don't know exactly what it says in english)
2.- Dial the sequence 2945#*990# or 2945#*999# and then input the unlock code, you should get a message saying the request to unlock the phone was successful (again, or something like that) and then the phone will restart
3.- Once it loads again, you should see the name of the network provider and have signal.
Now try again, and tell exactly where it's going different for you to see if someone can help you, if not there's always the option to unlock by software.

Thank you but i get an error when i send the unlock code says networking error of.somthing also is softweare unlocking easy to do?

Koodo phone won't be used on Rogers network.

I was planning on giving my uncle my ace and unfortunately when I put his sim in and try to connect to Rogers APN it says I'm unable to register on to the network. I put my sim in from my One V and it worked on that phone. I'm assuming it's carrier locked, how exactly can it be fixed if at all. Thanks.

the phone is locked. you need to get an unlock code. look on ebay or your local craigslist. you should be able to get it done for under $20

I've heard that cellunlocker.net works. It costs some money, but from what I've heard, it sounds pretty good!

Why I thought this wasn't the case is that my phone never asks for a code to be unlocked like these sites say, so I'm a little confused as to whether my phone is locked or unlocked.

There's probably a hidden menu that you have to access. I think if you get your code, specific for your device, they should give you clear instructions on how to get there... But they probably won't do it until you pay for it . I'll try and search around and see what I can find.
-------- edit ---------------------------------------------------------------
Alrighty! Here is the thread that you might be looking for. It's a bunch of hidden menus, and one of them might be the one you are looking for....

I think u should edit ur apn configuration and use rogers setting.. may be u can find the rogers setting in their web..

You didn't specify which ROM the Ace was running. If its a stock Samsung ROM, I'd expect it to ask for a code, but with CM7 or 9, it won't since those build lack some libraries to perform the actual unlock.
To get your code look into the bml5 method.

Z3 compact network unlock

Hello
Please tell me which is the most reliable online network unlocking site for an ee uk z3compact ?
I've been to shops but they ask like £ 45/60 for unlocking and they do it the same by using internet sites ....
I also found some sites but not sure if they are trustworthy.
Thanks!

Do you mean
unlock=root or
unlock=boot loader or
unlock=phone from a specific carrier?

He said network unlocking.I think he means unlock phone from specific carrier.

The last one unlock=phone from a specific carrier and the carrier is EE uk !

Can you post a screen what are the values for your SIM LOCK?
in the phone dialer enter *#*#7378423#*#* (SERVICE)
Enter Service info > SIM Lock

Network is 5 so is not blocked , the unlock counter is not 0 !

I've been reading up a little on this, and found out that there not so many tools to force unlock the phone without an unlock code.
Also reports of using tools for HTC/Samsung (could not find any Sony related) not correctly (or sometimes correctly) resulted in a HARD bricked device.
So I suggest to get that unlock code, so you'll be on the safe side.

Yes I'm asking what is the best site to buy the unlock code ???
Which is the most used by the xda developers users ......?

I never used it, hence I always buying already unlocked phones.
My friend used this site to unlock his T-mobile GS4 and it worked.

Ok thanks , unfortunately I've used another site ... hope is ok , I will let you know.

Today I got the unlock code , all worked 100%.
